Lovely atmosphere & service! The avocado toast was delish - perfect amount of seasoning and acidity. I will definitely be back!

Such a nice spot, right next to the Metra! Came for coffee and empanadas, greeted by very friendly staff and walked out with full bellies. Will return!

Visiting Chicago and this adorable coffee shop was right next to our AirBnB. The coffee was delicious and the avocado toast was delightful. Huge variety of yummy foods including lots of vegetarian options. WiFi was strong and the staff was friendly. Highly recommend you support this neighborhood gem!

Coffee is delicious, and I really enjoyed my avocado toast breakfast. I didn’t have time to try other things on the menu, but they look delicious.

I was serviced by Jazmin , She was super nice and helpful with giving me options of what to choose! I’ll definitely swing by again soon xP

It is a very nice spot inside the neighborhood art center. Enjoy it as a stand alone cafe with a comfy couch or combine your visit with a stroll through an art gallery.

I love the food and atmosphere here, but I have my reservations about service. Just to be sure, I want this to appear as a feedback rather than a criticism:

1) I don’t know what’s up with your pricing model - sometimes I got charged $4.00 for an iced latte and sometimes I get charged $7.00

2) this has happened almost three times now: I say I want the food for here but I get it in a plastic bag.

3) the coffee almost always has grounds leak into it - I always taste a lot of grounded coffee in my drink; but this doesn’t always happen

I dont like giving places bad reviews, but the “cold brew” I got was so bitter that I don’t really understand how a coffee shop could serve it. It tasted like hot coffee with ice in it. The space was nice and the food looked good, but they shouldn’t mess up one of the most basic coffee items that bad

I just didn’t feel comfortable. I felt like I was in the wrong skin when I walked in. The cashier acted as though I asked for something that they didn’t sell.. Walked over to the display where I showed her what I was requesting for her to tell me they stop serving food at 3 o’clock. and then smiled like it was funny. I didn’t see the humor in her actions and I don’t want to patronize that establishment again. I went in there Four months ago and the exact same thing happen
